No sighting of the ice cream bar mickey bag--- find that bag! You have over a week left and I need to know where to go!

Yeah, Yeah, what she said!!
Find that bag!!!!!!!

 

[winkers]

charles as paris hilton!!!

Is he going to appear wearing a blonde wig and suddenly loose 25 iq points?

 

[Happydog]

What a fun post! Just loved Nobby's tour around your house and all the stuff he got into!

Very cute. Hope the packing is going according to plan!!!

The pictures were very cute. Can't believe you are going to be gone for a week in only "G..E" days! Actually, it is practically only "E" at the time I am writing this!!!!!!!!!!!!!YAYAYAYAYAY

Have you emptied that drawer??!!

And how cool you get to have a DIS meet!

 

[brookelizabeth]

CP, I won't be on here tomorrow much, or on Saturday to see you off-so I wish you a MAGICAL AND WONDERFUL TRIP!!!

And, I'll be listening from Minnesota for when you sing me Happy Birthday.


The conversation with Charles is funny! I can completely relate-I think it's a guy thing to throw a wrench in the plans at the very last minute!

 

[wigdoutdismom]

You may need to adjust your fridge so you can get drinks "gas station" cold...
I have to admit that I love opening a d-pepsi and it being partially frozen.How funny, Charles the road trip diva! He just might have a new title!

As far as the bag watch, checked Grand Floridian tonight and nothing, will check the Poly tomorrow.........

 

[KathyRN137]

How're you coming along with the laundry??

We've got to get you packed!!!

[NotSoEvilStepmother]

I really need to stop reading so late at night. Charles being a road trip diva is just cracking me up. But it's probably gonna just as funny tomorrow when I'm wide awake.
I'd love to see Charles in a blonde wig. When describing Florida does he say, "That's hot"?
Okay. Bedtime.

Oh, wait, I forgot.

TWO DAYS.
(Even less now, actually)

 

[MegansMom]

I am so glad that Nobby found his way South!!!! You are so close that I am sure you can taste it.....Tomorrow you are going to MICKEY's HOUSE!!!!!!!

 

[IluvXU]

One day sounds good... but tomorrow sounds better!

YEA!!!!

 

[2xcited2sleep]

I woke up this morning and thought to myself... Jackie is going to WDW TOMORROW!!!!!!!

Thanks for posting your final itinerary. I'll be following along virtually and thinking about all the fun you're having.

Charles the road trip diva/Paris Hilton!

Hope you've hidden the Benadryl.

Just in case you're not DIS'ing tonight, have a super-duper magical time!

Some advice/requests. Try a drink a day off your wish list. Enjoy Illuminations (your first viewing, right?). I think I've said it before but my favorite part is in the beginning when they blow out the torches. Chills. Soak in the amazing atmosphere of AKL. Try to do the night vision goggles one night! Have a drink in Victoria Falls. Hang out in the lobby. Buy the mickey bar bag!! Have an ice cream sandwich from Main Street Bakery. Do more cute poses with the kids. Make Charles buy DVC. Or at least book bounceback for the end of Sept. Don't pull a Toy Story Mania. Come back with more terrific CP family stories!

I'll miss you! But I'll manage b/c I know we'll be getting an awesome TR!!

Have fun!!

 

[dddisrunner]

Jackie! YOU. LEAVE.TOMORROW. So excited for you! Thanks for posting your itinerary! I am crazy for the rest of the day and don't know if I will get back on to post so I wanted to say now............. have an AWESOME and SAFE trip!!!!! I hope AKL lives up to your wildest dreams Good luck with your souveneir list and I hope you get to ride/see some things off your "never done" list!!! I will be thinking of you!! Have fun meeting Wigd and her family too!!!!

 

[MeMom]

So, what I'm sensing here is that this time tomorrow you won't be hanging around here with me in these early morning hours?

You kind of have a morning ADR at the gas station. That's cute.

I noticed on your itinerary that you have exclamation marks at the ends of each activity.
I'm pretty sure exclamation marks express excitement. At least that's what I teach my third-graders.
If I were to show them your post, they would say there is probably a lot of excitement being shown there.

Just the other day, you were at 60 days, and now, it's here. When it's not your own trip, it seems to go by in a flash!

We're going to a wedding tomorrow night, but I have a feeling that part of me will be picturing you guys down there checking in at AKL and then roaming around the streets of Hollywood. I'm pretty sure you'll all be smiling in that picture, too.

I'm sure I'll come back to say it again tonight, but in case my fingers all get broken or my computer crashes or something catastrophic prevents me from doing so, I'll throw out my wishes now for a safe, wonderful, incredible trip full of magic!

I take that back.

Not the wishes - the broken fingers thing.

If all my fingers get broken,
I'll come back and type my well wishes
with my nose.

Have a FABULOUS FRIDAY!

 

[Charleston Princess]

Charles, the road trip diva. Oh my goodness, I literally snorted with laughter when I read that.

I really can't wait for your TR so I can hear all about Charles Diva-like exploits.

The only way I made it through that conversation without completely losing my temper was the thought that I could turn it into an amusing PTR update.

You know there is bound to be more Charles, the Diva stories after eight days at Disney!

that conversation with Charles really just had me laughing out loud! Thats too funny. Men!

Your final itinerary looks great. Just think, tomorrow you can say "Tomorrow I'll be at WDW!!"

There is no figuring them out sometimes.

Tomorrow I will be on my way to WDW!

Sometimes they just have to grab the reins, don't they? It's amusing what George will suddenly decide he's putting his foot down about.

Here I was trying to make everything run smoothly tomorrow and out of the blue, there's Charles insisting on making not one, but two stops on the way out of town. Oh well. I guess it could be worse.

Charles and DH are of the same bird. That sounds like something DH would do just to throw me off, thanks for the day by day account. I am sure I will daydream of where you are next week and smile! I cannot believe you are headed to WDW in less than two days!

Don't they know it throws us all off??? I can't help but wonder what other Diva moments Charles is going to pull.

Yeah, Yeah, what she said!!
Find that bag!!!!!!!

Sadly, I don't think we will be getting the bag.

charles as paris hilton!!!

Is he going to appear wearing a blonde wig and suddenly loose 25 iq points?

It's quite the image, isn't it?

What a fun post! Just loved Nobby's tour around your house and all the stuff he got into!

Very cute. Hope the packing is going according to plan!!!

The pictures were very cute. Can't believe you are going to be gone for a week in only "G..E" days! Actually, it is practically only "E" at the time I am writing this!!!!!!!!!!!!!YAYAYAYAYAY

Have you emptied that drawer??!!

And how cool you get to have a DIS meet!

The kids have enjoyed having Nobby around.

Yeay for being on the last letter!!!

The drawer is emptied.

We are so looking forward to meeting Wigd!

 

[Charleston Princess]

CP, I won't be on here tomorrow much, or on Saturday to see you off-so I wish you a MAGICAL AND WONDERFUL TRIP!!!

The conversation with Charles is funny! I can completely relate-I think it's a guy thing to throw a wrench in the plans at the very last minute!

Thank you!!!

I will sing it as loud as I can for you! I hope you have a fantastic weekend in Minneapolis!

I think he thought long and hard for what would throw me into a tizzy the quickest.

You may need to adjust your fridge so you can get drinks "gas station" cold...
I have to admit that I love opening a d-pepsi and it being partially frozen.How funny, Charles the road trip diva! He just might have a new title!

As far as the bag watch, checked Grand Floridian tonight and nothing, will check the Poly tomorrow.........

I wonder if that is a setting on my refrigerator's dial, "Gas Station Cold."

I know I will be calling him Road Trip Diva all day tomorrow.

That's okay about the bag -- I have gotten over my initial disappointment and am resigned to the fact that it is sold out.

How're you coming along with the laundry??

We've got to get you packed!!!


Kathy

Packing? I am supposed to be packing? I am about to start today's load of laundry. Really, folding clothes and sticking them in the suitcases is about all that I have left to do. That and taking Nala to the kennel. Judging by her crazy god behavior this morning it is going to be sooner rather than later.

I really need to stop reading so late at night. Charles being a road trip diva is just cracking me up. But it's probably gonna just as funny tomorrow when I'm wide awake.
I'd love to see Charles in a blonde wig. When describing Florida does he say, "That's hot"?
Okay. Bedtime.

Oh, wait, I forgot.

TWO DAYS.
(Even less now, actually)

Why, yes, anytime we talk about the weather, that is what Charles says.

One more sleep in our own beds!!!

I am so glad that Nobby found his way South!!!! You are so close that I am sure you can taste it.....Tomorrow you are going to MICKEY's HOUSE!!!!!!!

I can almost smell the wood-burning scent at Animal Kingdom Lodge!!!

One day sounds good... but tomorrow sounds better!

YEA!!!!

I feel like Annie, "Tomorrow! Tomorrow! I love ya, Tomorrow! You're only a day away!"

I woke up this morning and thought to myself... Jackie is going to WDW TOMORROW!!!!!!!

Hip Hip Hooray!!!

Thanks for posting your final itinerary. I'll be following along virtually and thinking about all the fun you're having.

Charles the road trip diva/Paris Hilton!

Hope you've hidden the Benadryl.

You know I have -- no Benadryl is coming with us. Which probably means that we will suddenly need it for actual medicinal purposes, and I will have to pay Disney prices for it.

Just in case you're not DIS'ing tonight, have a super-duper magical time!

Not DISing tonight? Don't be silly! I have one more update to post! But thank you!

Some advice/requests. Try a drink a day off your wish list. Enjoy Illuminations (your first viewing, right?). I think I've said it before but my favorite part is in the beginning when they blow out the torches. Chills. Soak in the amazing atmosphere of AKL. Try to do the night vision goggles one night! Have a drink in Victoria Falls. Hang out in the lobby. Buy the mickey bar bag!! Have an ice cream sandwich from Main Street Bakery. Do more cute poses with the kids. Make Charles buy DVC. Or at least book bounceback for the end of Sept. Don't pull a Toy Story Mania. Come back with more terrific CP family stories!

I will, I will. I promise to do all of these things!

I'll miss you! But I'll manage b/c I know we'll be getting an awesome TR!!

Have fun!!

Thank you, Christine!!! I will miss you, too! I will come back armed with some great stories and photos!

 

[MRYPPNS]

So, what I'm sensing here is that this time tomorrow you won't be hanging around here with me in these early morning hours?

You kind of have a morning ADR at the gas station. That's cute.

I think you should change that "ADR" to 6am instead of 7am....tell Charles that's when the drinks at the gas station are at their peak of coldest!

 

[Charleston Princess]

Jackie! YOU. LEAVE.TOMORROW. So excited for you! Thanks for posting your itinerary! I am crazy for the rest of the day and don't know if I will get back on to post so I wanted to say now............. have an AWESOME and SAFE trip!!!!! I hope AKL lives up to your wildest dreams Good luck with your souveneir list and I hope you get to ride/see some things off your "never done" list!!! I will be thinking of you!! Have fun meeting Wigd and her family too!!!!

Thank you so much, Diane!!! Just think, when I get back you will be only days away from leaving yourself!!!

So, what I'm sensing here is that this time tomorrow you won't be hanging around here with me in these early morning hours?

Sadly, no. But I will be thinking about you as we drive through south Georgia!

You kind of have a morning ADR at the gas station. That's cute.

Now I am going to totally think of it as an ADR!

I noticed on your itinerary that you have exclamation marks at the ends of each activity.
I'm pretty sure exclamation marks express excitement. At least that's what I teach my third-graders.
If I were to show them your post, they would say there is probably a lot of excitement being shown there.

Lots of excitement for sure! If you notice, I did not use exclamation points on the things we are doing the last day. No excitement for leaving. We need to invent a punctuation mark to show sadness and despair.

Just the other day, you were at 60 days, and now, it's here. When it's not your own trip, it seems to go by in a flash!

It did fly by -- which is good news because it means your final days will fly by as well!

We're going to a wedding tomorrow night, but I have a feeling that part of me will be picturing you guys down there checking in at AKL and then roaming around the streets of Hollywood. I'm pretty sure you'll all be smiling in that picture, too.

Grinning from ear to ear -- that will be us!

I'm sure I'll come back to say it again tonight, but in case my fingers all get broken or my computer crashes or something catastrophic prevents me from doing so, I'll throw out my wishes now for a safe, wonderful, incredible trip full of magic!

I take that back.

Not the wishes - the broken fingers thing.

If all my fingers get broken,
I'll come back and type my well wishes
with my nose.

Have a FABULOUS FRIDAY!

Thank you! I hope when you get back on tonight you won't have to type with your nose.

I think you should change that "ADR" to 6am instead of 7am....tell Charles that's when the drinks at the gas station are at their peak of coldest!

I told Charles I wanted to leave the house by 6am. Hopefully that will put us on the highway by 6:30 at the latest.

I bet you right now that despite his saying he doesn't know what he wants until he is standing right there, the man will exit the gas station with a Yoohoo and a Coke. That's what he always gets when we leave for Disney.

TOMORROW

You can read my mind, Katie! This is exactly what I thought when I woke up this morning! I think I even thought in those colors too!

 

[Happydog]

I hope you have just an AWESOME time and that you get all your "Must Haves and Must Do's"!

So when you get back you can say:

"Yep! Done that!" and "Oh! Yes, the Hunny Pots are great!" and "Mmmmmm love that slushie" and "My new favorite Disney moment is ....."

Not that we can ever have ONE favorite moment! I hope the weather is great and that the travel down goes without a hitch, and that you check right into the AKL and see lots of wild life Can't wait to hear how it all goes! Looking forward to hearing all about it when you get back!

PS - OF course I had to LOL when I read that you had an ADR with the Gas Station convenience store
